Roster strength (fantasy model)

#41 in P4

Skill-position value over replacement, summed

Spend is a band on purpose: collective money is not public, so anyone quoting an exact payroll is guessing. Roster strength covers skill positions only, from the same college fantasy model behind our 2026 rankings.

Roster with Model Prices

Every LSU player in our valuation set, priced by the model. Where a real deal has been credibly reported, that number shows instead with a source link and the word reported right on the badge.

The money behind the program

Rev-share layer (est.)

$15.3M

School money shared with athletes under the House settlement cap, football's estimated slice

Third-party NIL layer (mid)

$15.3M

Collective and endorsement money on top, midpoint of our estimate

Athletics revenue

$223.5M

Total athletics revenue from the school's federal EADA filing, public record

How the numbers are built: revenue-share layer plus third-party NIL layer, calibrated against published benchmarks and our ledger of reported deals. Full methodology on the roster spend page and the NIL rankings page. What goes in is public; the exact weights are ours.
